Preview
Pumas UNAM and Toluca meet at Estadio Olímpico de Universitario, in a match for the 14th round of the Liga MX. The head‑to‑head record at this stadium couldn't be more balanced, as it shows 1 draw and 2 wins for each team in the last 5 head‑to‑heads. Nevertheless, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, on 01‑09‑2019, for the Liga MX, Pumas UNAM won by (2‑1). B. Mendoza (90' ) and C. González (56' ) scored for Pumas UNAM and E. Gigliotti (90' ) for Toluca. The home/away factor is worth special atention, since although this is a match between 4th and 10th of the league table, it’s also a match between the 3rd best team in home matches and the 14th best in away matches.

Analysis Pumas

The home team is currently in the 4th position of the league, with 24 points won, after 6 wins, 6 draws and 1 loss. In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against Necaxa, by (1‑1).

They haven’t lost any of the last 7 home matches for this competition. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 13 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Despite not winning in three rounds, Pumas continues with a positive campaign. Intending to remain at the top of the table, the home team doesn't want to lose against Toluca. From early on, they want to stand up and go after goals, because they don't want to have too much trouble in the match. Therefore, if they show quality and efficiency in acting, they tend to win.

In the last match, they won in a home match against Cruz Azul, by (2‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 5 points in away matches and 12 points at their stadium, with 10 goals scored and 7 goals conceded at home, against 7 goals scored and 15 conceded in away matches.

Therefore, even though they will encounter difficulties in the current round, they have an obligation to try to get at least a draw. Their performance must be of high level to have greater chances.
